Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP)

This site provides comprehensive information on sustainable public procurement (SPP), also called responsible and sustainable procurement (RSP). The information has been prepared specifically for public purchasers. It is a translation of our Dutch website. Sustainable public procurement means focussing on the environmental and social impact of procurement as well as the price of the products, services or works in question. In addition to practical information, this site provides details of the latest developments in the field of SPP. Would you prefer to go straight to the relevant product information? If so, take a look at product groups.

SPP themes

As a professional procurer, you are expected to purchase products, services or works which are as sustainable as possible. Accordingly, the impact of any procurement on people and the environment must be considered in addition to price considerations.

SPP in the procurement process

Environmental criteria for SPP

The Environmental Criteria are reviewed regularly to keep it up to date. During this process the documents are tested on the accuracy and where needed adjustments are made accordingly.
